The ONLY guitar from the Estate of SRV to go on sale to the public. The guitar is "Lenny", used to record the song of the same name and also "Riviera Paradise." It was a gift to Stevie from his wife Lenny thus he named it so.

Lenny, ~1965 Fender Stratocaster composite.

man i was banned from the o-club during most of the umm black days a while back.

that poor guy is drooling right now though LOL. keep an eye out for new members posting in this topic.

on topic, i put the selling price above $50,000, maybe even $75,000

it doesnt have the correct tremelo (at least all other SRV models i have seen had the left handed version with the tremelo bar near the low E string)

I am reasonably sure Mr Black isn't Diablo. I can't say for certain that Diablo isn't Mr. Black.

I am thinking more in the $200,000 to $400,000 area. I am betting also that KWS will win the auction. I'd give anything to get my hands on it.

I am reasonably sure that VOR isn't my wingman, and my wingman isn't VOR.

Touche! Speaking of which, are you guys still in I or have you migrated to II? I've logged into the CT a time or two and didn't see ya.

DiabloTX · « **Reply #8 on:** June 16, 2004, 06:13:11 PM »

Set up in both. We flew in the CT last Sunday night for our practice session.

You meet on Sundays for practise, and what night for squad events?

DiabloTX · « **Reply #10 on:** June 16, 2004, 06:18:37 PM »

It's just like it was with the 325th, practice on Sundays at 2000 CST and squad nights Tues. and Thurs. at 2100 CST.

VOR · « **Reply #11 on:** June 16, 2004, 06:21:54 PM »

Ok, I'll have a look for ya tomorrow night!

Gotta warn you though...over a year without any regular flying REALLY shows.

DiabloTX · « **Reply #12 on:** June 16, 2004, 06:25:18 PM »

I just got back into the cockpit for the first time in 9 months last week. I know the feeling...

Ok, then we're perfect for each other LOL.
